Hymns for the Living Church ‎#157

157. I Know That My Redeemer Liveth

1 I know that my Redeemer liveth,
And on the earth again shall stand;
I know eternal life He giveth,
That grace and pow'r are in His hand.

Refrain:
I know, I know that Jesus liveth,
And on the earth again shall stand.
I know, I know that life He giveth,
That grace and pow'r are in His hand.

2 I know his promise never faileth,
The word He speaks, it cannot die;
Tho' cruel death my flesh assaileth,
Yet I shall see Him by and by. (Refrain)

3 I know my mansion He prepareth,
That where He is there I may be;
O wondrous thought, for me He careth,
And He at last will come for me. (Refrain)
